As the majority of Hollywood's major film and television wrap their current productions early, suspend them for weeks or pause them indefinitely in response to coronavirus fears, Hollywood's below-the-line employees are feeling the brunt of the slowdown
to several funds. On a broader scale, California and New York have implemented emergency policies — such as quicker access to unemployment benefits and a moratorium on evictions — to protect workers, while the coronavirus relief bill continues to make its way through Congress.
Nonfiction showrunner and executive producer Johanna Vanderspool is a member of the NonFiction Professionals "Union," a group of New York and L.A.-based freelance nonfiction producers, a largely un-unionized workforce. Based on her own experience, those of friends and observations of the group's over 1,000 members over the past few days, "Freelancers have been let go, without consideration or pay relief," she says.
Freelance creative and line producer Jess Weiss is concerned for how current coronavirus policies will reverberate in the future. All the companies she normally works with have paused production and implemented work from home policies; as for the development side of her job, companies are being careful with their finances and in-person meetings have been canceled due to the potential health risk.
